But this will still cause a data race if the write is e.g. due to a memcpy. There are already markers for KASAN around, so the most reliable thing is to just disable KCSAN in this region. > kasan_enable_current(); Suggested: + kcsan_enable_current(); Thanks, -- Marco > return object->checksum != old_csum; > -- > 2.21.0 (Apple Git-122.2) >
